Look, I don’t begrudge anyone being happy that MM or any of the other guys are returning. But IU has been “winning the off-season” since I’ve been alive, and I’m not falling for it again this year. So many IU fans get all pumped when we come off of a very disappointing season, and those same players announce they are returning. If they improve, we’ll be better, you say. Well, obviously…but to me, we lost Ware who single-handedly dragged us to 3-4 more wins this season, TJD the season before that. What significant improvement in guard play have we seen the last 3 seasons? If we do add some shooters (which I’m wondering what shooter in their right mind would come to IU), will they even shoot well on this antiquated system? Where’s the coaching changes or GM, that was going to make us better where we were lacking? As Chris said, this fan base quickly forgets how putrid the coaching was, when we haven’t seen it in a couple of weeks.
So nah, I’m not gonna get all pumped. Good for MM, and the other guys getting a raise. Now go actually do something on the floor.

This.
Finding an opportunity to potentially get it right for 20 years should be the ultimate and only goal.

I am hesitant to share this. I’m not a person with “sources,” and am not trying to claim to be someone who knows anything. I guess as much as anything, I appreciate this community and decided to share after thinking more about it. Don’t shoot the messenger.

Anyway, I know an immediate member of Dusty’s family and spoke with them last night. I try not to bother this person, but usually just say hey, I saw that FAU game the other night, etc. This person volunteered to me last night that the rumors about OSU and Dusty are true. They apparently offered him 3.5 million per year and the thing about Lebron offering more is also true. I said that I’d hate to see him go there and wished IU would hire him. This person said IU really isn’t high on Dusty’s list at all. He seems to think he wouldn’t be given adequate time, or if things didn’t go well, people would turn quickly.

This family member seemed to think (at least yesterday) that Dusty will most likely be a buckeye next year. Needless to say, I’ve been bummed ever since.

I thought Brownell out-coached Lloyd in that game. I’m probably the only one here that didn’t know he was born in Evansville. I guess I never paid attention to his history. Pretty cool for him/them!

Proud of that team. I don’t watch every women’s game, but every time I have this year, I’ve found myself thinking that that’s what Indiana basketball should be.

Thank you Arielle, Sara & Mack.  It has been an absolute pleasure.

Hung with Carolina on the boards 30 to 32 and out scored Carolina 43 to 30 in second half after being down by 22.
Hats off to IU Ladies Basketball and Thanks for another great season.

Really sucks to see the tears from our team. What a DOG FIGHT! Please don't hang your heads ladies... you still made Hoosier nation extremely proud tonight. Gut wrenching for the seniors. What a program CTM has built. Never let her leave. 

Someone explain to me how Courtney Green is allowed to officiate this Illinois game. He’s horrible, and I think everyone agrees on that. Officiating must be a bigger boys club than the IU admin.

The roster is decidedly worse than last years at this point, not sure why anyone thinks a 5* coming to be paid moves the needle. He is still being coach by a guy that doesn't understand college BB. At this point this is a sub .500 team.

Tony Perkins is a grown-@$$ man on the basketball court.
Sign me up any day any way for adding him.

Dang, we missed out on Foster and you, back-to-back. Tough day to be a fan.
